How to enrich our creative talents
and memory?

O Fire - God incarnate! Bestow on me the brilliance (of intellect),
which is prayed for by the gods and the spirits of the ancestors through devout
adoration. Everyone is interested to find some sure - shot formula to increase
memory power. The student community, in particular, feels its need more
acutely. How to memorize a lesson fast? How to retain and not forget what has
been learnt? Such questions keep cropping up in the minds of students. In
search of their answers, they indulge in all sorts of tactics, including
recourse to some medicines/drugs.
The drug companies, too, on their part exploit this vulnerability of
the students. Through attractive and high - power advertisements and false
promises of miracles they are ever eager to make a fast buck. It is not known
whether the really needy ever derive any benefit or not from the advertised
drugs.
This much, however, is certain that the so-called recipe of strong memory remains a much sought after mirage. In this connection, we should know and for certain that such wishful miracles do not happen anywhere in the universe. Every action, every event is defined and regulated by set rules of cosmic order, be they in the realer of physical laws or the spiritual.The same principle operates with respect to memory.

This has a science of its own, it own techniques. Those who know and
understand it are able to derive benefit easily, while the ignorant ones waste
their time in futile ventures and feel disappointed on crucial occasions. SO it
is better that one should thoroughly understand the correct techniques of
firmly committing some thing to memory and use them properly. Those who suffer
from memory problems have some standard complaints: What can I do, I just
cannot memorize; I had indeed memorized this, but forgot it; I can recollect
but only piecemeal, and so on and so forth.
Thanks GOD, Thanks Sadguru,
Shiv Sharma
